REVERSE AUCTIONBREAKOUT SESSION
52.215-9023 Reverse Auction
52.215-9023 Reverse Auction (JAN 2011) - DLAD
The Contracting Officer may utilize on-line reverse auctioning as a means of conducting price discussions under this solicitation. If the Contracting Officer does not conduct a reverse
auction, award may be made on the basis of initial offers or following discussions not using reverse auctioning as a pricing technique. If the Contracting Officer decides to use on-line
reverse auctioning to conduct price negotiations, the Contracting Officer will notify offerors of this decision and the following provisions will apply.
(a) The award decision will be made in accordance with the evaluation factors as set forth in the solicitation. The reverse on-line auction will be used as a pricing technique during
discussions to establish the final offered prices from each offeror. These prices will be used in conjunction with the evaluation factors stated elsewhere in the solicitation in order to
make the award decision in accordance with the basis for award stated in the solicitation.
(b) Following the decision to conduct discussions using on-line reverse auctioning as a pricing technique, the Contracting Officer or his/her representative will provide offerors
determined to be in the competitive range with information concerning the on-line auction process. The Government intends to use a commercial web-based product to conduct the
reverse auction.
(c) Prior to or simultaneously with conducting the on-line reverse auction, the Contracting Officer may hold discussions with the offerors concerning matters appropriate for
discussion, such as issues involving technical proposals or unbalanced pricing.
(d) Prior to the on-line auction, the Government will determine whether either all offerors' prices or just the lowest offeror's price(s) will be disclosed to other offerors and anyone else having
authorized access to the on-line auction. This disclosure is anonymous, meaning that each offeror's identity will be concealed from other offerors (although it will be known to the Government). If the
Government opts to disclose one or more offerors' prices, only generic identifiers will be used for each offeror's proposed pricing (e.g., "Offeror A", or "lowest priced offeror"). By
submitting a proposal in response to the solicitation, offerors agree to participate in the reverse auction and that their prices may be disclosed, including to other offerors, during the reverse auction.
(e) An offeror’s final auction price will be considered its final proposal revision. No price revisions will be accepted after the close of the reverse auction, unless the Contracting
Officer decides that further discussions are needed and final proposal revisions are again requested in accordance with FAR 15.307.
(f) The following information is provided regarding the procedures to be followed if a reverse auction is conducted.
(1) Each offeror identified by the Contracting Officer as a participant in the reverse auction will be contacted by DLA’s commercial reverse auction service provider to advise the
offeror of the event and to provide an explanation of the process.
